Thanks guys, construction wise ive got a few ideas floting aroung in my head on how to go about, but was just suprised the local repco didnt have a clue what I was tallking about. Might have to go a bit further a field this weekend.

Right shot to supercheap on the weekend and found some of the protector stuff, about $20-$30 or something like that, already painted black so I didnt have a chance to show off my skills with the spray can.

As I dont own a ditgital camera I cant post pics but Ill describe what I did.

First I removed the silver guards on the side of the SV's Radiator, and gave them a good clean while they were off.

Cut the mesh to approx size leaving enouhgh to bend around the ends of the radiator.

Bent one end at 90 degrees and used the bolts that held the silvers guards on to hold in place.

Bent the other end as was required.

Trimed up the gurad to size, just to make it look not to much like a hack job.

And then put the guard in place bolting the silver side plates over top of the guard, this part required some gentle pressure.

And hey presto Guard made.

Thanks for everyones advice.
